Nutz 132 Posted May 26, 2015 Because he was under contract to ride in Sweden tonight before he joined Swindon Ah, fair play, never knew that. Thanks for reply... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theblueboy 960 Posted May 26, 2015 Morris at 1 will be interesting. Has been sensational this season and has taken another step forward in his development. Liking the way the team is riding at home and if Kerr, with his best engine back, can get some decent points then I expect a fairly comfortable evening. Hans has been exceptional when guesting so I am surprised he has struggled on occasions for the Bees. I don't expect that to happen this evening tho'. Having seen Cup of Coffee and Harris earlier in the season I am not worried that either will cause us too many problems. Both rode poorly and Harris, in particular, seems a shadow of the rider that used to tear round the Abbey. King never gets many no matter how well he is riding and now that Chas is getting used to the track I am confident that he will nullify Garrity. I think the Robins will win this comfortably. 51-39. According to SR website take up has been 'excellent' for this fixture. TBH, if it wasn't then there would be major implications for speedway in Swindon. Anyone know roughly how many tickets sold?

Game On 1,117 Posted May 26, 2015 He's riding in Sweden instead I think this on paper is our toughest away fixture yet. I hope I'm wrong but predict 50-40 If Hans rides well i think the Bees will get a point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

theblueboy 960 Posted May 26, 2015 Except we have Rose - not Kerr. oh yeah... . Apologies to Mr Kerr. My point, irrespective of which Lewis I mentioned, still stands. Signs last week of improvement particularly in his gating is a much needed positive. He rode some poor lines last week, which didn't help, however, he hasn't exactly been helped on track by more senior riders who have left him to fend for himself when some team riding may have been more beneficial.

He had a much improved meetinv for his PL team yesterday. He says he has his best engine back & looks to have a bit more confidence again. We all know what a good rider he can be.

Crazy robin 2,963 Posted May 26, 2015 Tough one to call as Agent Dak will need to be in the points for a Robins win & an off night for any of the top 5 will mean a Bees win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thecoombdog 2,367 Posted May 26, 2015 Gutted I can't make tonight after recent knee surgery but a few beers mixed with the pain killers will numb the pain of a 4 pointer for Cov. Should be a cracker either way though based on how the track has been this season. Lovely weather in the Don today as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Woz01 3,589 Posted May 26, 2015 I would say this has the makings of being one of the better EL matches on Sky. Could go either way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
